Connective tissue sheath covering the whole muscle

epimysium

group of muscle fibers surrounded by the perimysium

fascicle

connective tissue covering on a fascicle

permysium

Another term for muscle cells

Myofribril

connective tissue cover on a muscle fiber

endomysium

a muscle cell membrane

sarcolemma

endoplasmic reticulum of a muscle cell; it also stores calcium (looks like smooth ER)

sarcoplasmic reticulum

Dark stripes are the ____ band

A

Light stripes are the ____ band

I

When muscle appears to be striped they are said to be

striated

____ bands are found in the middle of the I band

z band

____ band contains both think and thin myofilaments

A

___ band contains only thin filaments

I

___ zone only contains thick filaments

H zone

_________ is an example of a neurotransmitter

acetylcholine

_______ releases acetylcholine to active a muscle

motor neuron

which type of muscle has the best ability to use mitosis to replace damaged tissue?

smooth muscle

Muscle found in hallow organs


for example the digestive tract and urogenital tract

smooth muscle

The alternating contractions and relaxations of two layers of muscle in hollow organs is called?


(This moves substances through the organs

peristalsis

Thin filaments contain what contractile protein(s)?

actin, tropomysin,troponin

The neurotransmitter released that activates skeletal muscle

Acetylcholine

Depolarization of a muscle cell membrane is caused by movement of

Na+(sodium) into muscle cell

Repolarization of a muscle cell membrane is caused by movement of

K+(Potassium) out of muscle cell

What substance is stored and released from the Sarcoplasmic reticulum during a muscle contraction?

Ca+ (Calcium)

What disappears or decreases greatly when a muscle contracts?

H zones

What binds to sites on actin molecules when a muscle contracts?

myosin

Function of T-tubles.


(T=transverse)

carries electrical signals from cell surface to the sarcoplasmic reticulum

What type of muscle is involuntary and striated?

cardiac

What type of muscle is voluntary and striated?

skeletal

smooth muscle is

involuntary

This breaks down acetylcholine

acetylcholinesterase

Type of neuron that activates smooth muscle

autonomic motor neuron

When a muscle contracts the bone that moves is the

insertion

When a muscle contracts the bone that stays still is called the

origin

Organelle inside of a muscle cell

myofibril

Thick filaments contain what protein(s)

myosin

Another name for a muscle cell

muscle fiber

neurons associated with voluntary muscle

somatic motor neuron

neuron associated with involuntary muscle and glands

Autonomic motor neuron

what could you do to increase the force of contraction

increase the number of fibers stimulated

What type of muscle fiber contracts quickly and has a moderate resistance to fatigue

fast oxidative

What type of muscle fiber contracts slow and is resistant to fatigue

slow oxidative

What type of muscle fiber is fast and is easily fatigued.

fast glycoltic

This causes muscle burn

lactic acid

Anaerobic respiration produces approx. how many ATP

2

Aerobic respiration produces approx. how many ATP

30 "some"

This happens at the neuromuscular junction

There is a influx of Ca+ that triggers the release of the neurotransmitters by exocytosis

control weight bearing muscles such as the hips and thighs

large motor units

controls muscles that deal with detailed movements

small motor units

What type of muscle has the least regenerative ability?

Cardiac muscle

prefixes that signal you are dealing with muscle

sarco, myo, mys

describe the voltage that occurs during depolarization phase of an action potential

-70mV TO +30mV

describe the voltage that occurs during repolarization phase of an action potential

+30mV to -70mV

The axon terminal & muscle cell are separated by what?

synaptic cleft

Be able to label the same pictures

you did in lab :(
